✨ Technical Specifications
The Seguin-Manuel Bourgogne Rouge is a classic expression of Burgundian Pinot Noir, crafted to showcase the vibrant fruit and elegant structure typical of the region's entry-tier reds. Sourced from selected vineyards across Burgundy, this wine benefits from the estate's meticulous approach to viticulture and low-intervention winemaking. Under the guidance of Thibaut Marion, whose family legacy in Burgundy dates back generations, the grapes are hand-harvested and fermented using indigenous yeasts. The wine is aged in French oak casks with a very low percentage of new oak to round out its texture while preserving the bright, crunchy red fruit character—such as wild strawberry, red cherry, and a touch of forest floor—that defines classic Pinot Noir from this historic region.
🍾 About the Producer
Originally established in Savigny-lès-Beaune in 1824, Domaine Seguin-Manuel was completely revitalized in 2004 when acquired by Thibaut Marion, a tenth-generation vigneron formerly of Chanson Père & Fils. Relocating headquarters and cellars to Beaune, Marion modernized winemaking facilities and assembled a domaine footprint spanning roughly 8.5 hectares across Savigny-lès-Beaune, Beaune, Pommard, Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet, and Vosne-Romanée, supplemented by a meticulous micro-négociant operation. Vineyard management adheres strictly to certified organic viticulture, utilizing rigorous canopy pruning, plowing to encourage deep root penetration, and deliberate low yields. In the cuverie, fruit is hand-harvested and sorted meticulously, followed by gentle vinification with native yeasts and maturation in fine-grained French oak with restrained new wood usage. Seguin-Manuel's benchmark bottlings—such as Beaune Premier Cru Clos des Mouches, Savigny-lès-Beaune Premier Cru Aux Guettes, and Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru La Garenne—embody classical Côte de Beaune precision, marrying pure red and black fruit profiles or flinty mineral tension with supple, well-integrated structural depth.
